STOCKTON – A 20-year-old security guard patrolling the Sherwood Executive Center was nearly robbed of his bicycle around 5 p.m. Thursday in the 5200 block of Claremont Avenue, police reported, when a man came into the complex and took the bike.

The guard, seeing the robber leave going eastbound, tackled the man, where the two wrestled over the bike. The robber broke free and left traveling east on Yokuts Avenue.

The man had been a suspect in a disturbance call at Gottschalks.

Police are looking for Anthony Atkins for questioning in both incidents. He is described as a black man, 25 years old, 5 feet 8 inches tall, weighing 150 pounds. He was last seen wearing a black cap with red lettering, black sweatshirt and blue jeans.
